Plastic optical fiber (POF) is a fiber technology developed decades ago to provide low-data-rate communications with easy handling and high immunity to electromagnetic interference. A classic POF data link consists of three parts: a transmitter, a driver, a light source, a communication channel, and a receiver. As an alternative, a POF system potentially provides a higher data rate for longer channel lengths and is considerably easier to install.
